Doc Visit Report


Here is the doc visit report from yesterday as reported by Ms. Lolo. This is a photo of Peggy's cute outfit for Dr. Davis:

Had a good report on Peggy for her video visit. Everything A-ok - skin
looks good - no breakdown or rashes, eyes look good (considering), feet
look good. We forgot to discuss the G-tube leakage, but the dressing
remained dry today. Peggy says the hallucinations happen about 2x day,
mostly in the afternoon. They do not scare her. She experiences acid
reflux after getting her night meds, if she is too flat. Kathy put a
note in the HCA book for them not to lay her flat. They talked about
going on a bolus feeding schedule. Dr. Davis suggested
a nutritionist named Scott Carter, which Kathy will call to set up an
appointment with Peggy to discuss the feeding schedule and what's best
to do. Kathy also called in refills for Zyrtec and Nexium. Longs
later called to say that the Zyrtec prescription is expired, but is
available over the counter. The Nexium is too soon to refill. I left
a message for Kathy to call me, but so far she hasn't returned my call.

There is also some confusion regarding the meds and the med schedule. As Lolo suggested, we'll cover all of this at the Peg's Legs Meeting next week. For those that can't attend, we'll spread the word to everyone via the blog and/or post it in Peg's room. Speaking of meds, we are still out of Ferrous Sulfate, but Elroy is working on getting it - they were out of it at the pharmacy yesterday.
